I bought my first straight razor today at an antique shop down the street. It is a Maher & Grosh made in Toledo, Ohio. The blade says our master piece on it. The blade is in good shape. It has a faux ivory or plastic type handle. It came with the original box, but it is in ruff shape. I just tried to find info on the co. but did not find much. Does anyone know more about this manufacture or around when this razor could have been made? Thanks.
